Drovin into 6th form parked up when i noticed there was smoke coming from my engine checked it out and it was the pipe from the radiator to the engine (the 1 on the left) had complete split into 2 parts... all of the water coolent and antifreeze had all poored out, so my car had no water at all...the heater wasnt workin, and the temp guade didnt work, so my car was over heating. when 2 vauxhalls and they sorted it, pretty bad they said worse they have ever seen... well its fixed.

Does any1 know if it could av cause any other damage?
